1.0 Background

1.1 Multiple tripping occurred at 220 kV Samaypur sub-station of BBMB on 09.06.2016.

1.2 NRPC, vide their Order No NRPC/OPR/105/11/2016/ dated 10.06.2016 constituted a group to analyse the possible causes and suggest the remedial measures to avoid recurrence of such tripping in future. The members of the group constituted are given as under:

2.0 Multiple element tripping at 220kV Samaypur station on 9th Jun 2016 at 14:27hrs

A. Event Summary: At 14:27:20:599 hrs. of 9th Jun 2016, Yellow phase CT (current transformer) of 220kV Samaypur-Palwal Circuit-I at Samaypur (BBMB) end busted & caught fire. It resulted into failure of all three phase CB of the same line and created a bus fault for Bus-1. Bus Bar Protection for Bus-1 of 220kV Samaypur (BBMB) didn’t operate and all 220kV connected lines tripped on Z-2 / Z-3 distance protection in respective duration from remote end. All four 400/220kV ICTs also tripped in backup earth fault protection. 400kV Ballabhgarh-Gurgaon line tripped from Gurgaon end on Z-3 distance protection. 220kV Faridabad-Palla circuit-1 tripped from Faridabad end due to PLCC carrier mal-operation. 220kV Faridabad generation islanded from the grid with the load of Haryana (Palla, Palli, Partial load of Sector-56 and 52, Gurgaon). Faridabad generation tripped on under frequency protection. House load operation of Faridabad units didn’t occur due to problem in the logic. 220kV Badarpur U#4 & U#5 units tripped within 1800ms of fault occurrence on boiler and turbine problem. After tripping of all 220kV grid connectivity of partial South Delhi area and melting of jumper in 220kV Charkhi Dadri-BTPS line, Pragati generation islanded with the partial load of South Delhi area. The UFR and df/dt relays (all three stages) operated resulted in load shedding of the order

of 500MW in the aforesaid island. Finally island of partial South Delhi load collapsed due to load generation mismatch. It resulted into partial load loss in South Delhi area and Haryana control area. Delayed clearance of fault (FIDVR: Fault induced delayed voltage recovery) and large dip in voltage in nearby area having large AC and induction motor load resulted into stalling of induction motors/AC for few seconds and recover within few seconds to few minutes. Similar type of load reduction (~3750MW) also observed on 18.05.2016, during tripping of 400kV Bawana-Mundka ckt-2 on Y-B phase to phase fault. A summarized list of such load reduction events in NR (Northern Region) is attached as Annex-1. Due to actual load loss and stalling of induction motors, sudden load reduction occurred on 765kV Agra-Gwalior D/C line. Power flow on 765kV Agra-Gwalior reduced from 1212MW to 470MW per circuit and it resulted into triggering of case-2 of SPS (System protection scheme). SPS scheme, designed load loss and generation backing down details for 765kV Agra-Gwalior SPS attached as Annex-2.

F. Sequence of Event: Y-phase CT busted at 220kV Samaypur (BBMB) end of 220kV Samaypur (BBMB)-

Palwal ckt-1. It resulted into failure of CBs of all three phases at Samaypur (BBMB) end of 220kV Samaypur-Palwal ckt-1. CT damage report is attached as Annex-4.

Bus Bar Protection for Bus-1 of Samaypur (BBMB) didn’t operate on bus fault. The Faridabad (FGPS)-Palla ckt-2 was the first to trip of all the four (220KV Samaypur-1,

2, Palla-1 & 2) outgoing feeders at Faridabad. It tripped from FGPS end by operation of Distance protection on receipt of PLCC carrier. However PLCC of this line was under outage. Carrier protection scheme may be mal-operated at Faridabad (FGPS) end.

220kV Faridabad-Samaypur ckt-1 and ckt-2 tripped from Faridabad end in Z-2 timing. 220kV Samaypur-Badshahpur DC was radially fed the load of Badshahpur area however

220kV Samaypur-Badshahpur ckt-1 tripped from Badshahpur end due to loop flow of fault current during fault in DC line. 220kV Samaypur-Badshahpur ckt-2 didn’t trip after tripping of ckt-1 due to radial load.

220kV Samaypur-Ballabhgarh (BBMB) triple circuit tripped from Ballabhgarh (BBMB) end in Z-2 or Z-3 time.

220kV Samaypur-Palli ckt-1 and 2 tripped from Palli end in Z-2 or Z-3 time. 220kV Samaypur-Palwal ckt-1 & 2 were radially feeding the load of Palwal area. After

tripping of 220kV Samaypur-Palwal ckt-1, 220kV Samaypur-Palwal ckt-2 remained intact in the system and manually opened later on. DR didn’t trigger for low voltage during fault condition.

Z-3 distance protection of 400kV Gurgaon-Ballabhgarh line operated from Gurgaon (PG) within 1400ms of occurrence of fault.

400/220kV ICT-1, 2, 3 and 4 of Ballabhgarh (PG) tripped on backup over current protection from 400V side. Last ICT (ICT 03) tripped within 1800ms of occurrence of fault.

Fault isolated from the system after tripping of 400/220kV ICT-03 of Ballabhgarh (PG).

Island operation of Faridabad Generation: Faridabad Gas Power Station (FGPS) is connected with DC Palla (HVPNL) and DC

Samaypur (BBMB) respectively. GT-2 was running on Gas Fuel with Steam turbine at 118 and 63 MW load respectively.

After tripping of 220kV Samaypur-Palli DC and Samaypur-Faridabad DC, Faridabad generation becomes islanded with the load of Palla, Palli and partial load of Sector-56 & 52.

This island could not survive and collapsed within 10sec due to more load remaining connected than the generation at FGPS.

GT-2 terminal voltage at FGPS dropped to 3.8KV (10.5kV normal) and the 6.6kV switchgear voltage dipped to 2.6kV. Palla being load centre, always draws power from FGPS and with its isolation from Palli, entire load shifted to FGPS. As a result of higher load than generation, frequency dipped to 47.32 Hz and 220kV HVCB of GT-1&2 opened with Under Frequency protection.

Logic:

Gas Turbine Unloading and Protection Shutdown took place as Channel fault appeared

in GT-2 due to line current (in Transducer) in R, Y and B phases exceeding full scale. This logic (shown above) led to the initiation of Shutdown of Gas turbine-2. As soon as HVCB of GT-2 opened due to under frequency, its UAT incomers also opened as per logic. This logic prevented the running GT to come on House Load.

Island operation of partial South Delhi Load: After multiple element tripping at 220kV Samaypur (BBMB), partial load of South Delhi

area was being fed from 220kV BTPS Generation, 220kV Pragati Generation and import from 220kV MIA, 220kV Charkhi Dadri and 400/220kV Bamnauli (PG).

Badarpur U#4 & U#5 was running with load of 195 & 207 MW but both units tripped after 1800ms of fault occurrence. Both the unit tripped due to boiler and turbine problem.

Root Cause & GPS time of tripping could not be pin pointed due to non-availability of SOE, time synchronized DR and Event logs.

After tripping of Badarpur Generation of ~400MW, generation in South Delhi area became 200MW and load of ~900MW. It resulted into exceeding the import on grid connected 220kV lines.

Due to increase in the loading of 220kV Mehrauli-DIAL D/C, 220kV Bus coupler at Mehrauli station manually opened by operational staff. It further increased the power flow on remaining 220kV lines (220kV Charkhi Dadri-BTPS and MIA-BTPS).

220kV MIA-BTPS also manually opened from MIA end due to increase in the line loading and it resulted into very high loading on 220kV Charkhi Dadri-BTPS line.

220kV Charkhi Dadri-BTPS power flow increased upto 900-1000Ampere and line finally tripped due to melting of jumper.

After tripping of only grid connected source for partial south Delhi Island, generation load mismatch observed in the island and it resulted into operation of defense mechanism for the island. All three stages (Stage-1, 2 and 3) of df/dt(Rate of change of frequency) Relay and UFR (Under Frequency Relay) operated in the island and shed the load of ~500MW.

Finally Pragati generation also tripped and partial blackout occurred in south Delhi area. Load shedding due to stalling of induction motors and Case-2 operation of 765kV Agra-Gwalior SPS Scheme: Load shedding in the Delhi NCR area due to stalling of induction motors due to dip in the

voltage. It resulted into steep rise in the frequency and df/dt relay may be operated. Member from Rajasthan informed that similar type of outage due to dip in the voltage

also occurred in Rajasthan for 33kV and 132kV loads of chemical and textile industries. Industrial machine tripped during transient dip in the system voltage.

Due to actual load loss and stalling of induction motors, sudden load reduction occurred on 765kV Agra-Gwalior SPS. Power flow on 765kV Agra-Gwalior reduced from 1212MW to 470MW per circuit and it resulted into operation of Case-2 of Agra-Gwalior SPS scheme. Case-2 operation shed the NR (Northern Region) load in C, D, E, F group and generation backing down in Korba, Vindhyachal and Mundra of WR (Western Region).

Case-2 of Agra-Gwalior SPS scheme design to cater the tripping of both 765kV Agra-Gwalior lines from remote end but in this condition actual load reduction occurred on these lines without tripping of line and Case-2 operated. This logic of power flow took due to non-availability of proper OPGW connectivity between these two stations.
